Long live the Britons :)

I think my head is going to explode. Quite literally. I have just spent the last 4 hours sloughing through Spenser's recount of English history in Canto X of the Faerie Queen. Despite the long lists of geneology, it actually wasn't TOO too bad; I even recognized a couple of names he pulled from here and there (three cheers for understanding). However, at this rate, I will hardly finish the entire poem in time. Mind you, I am STILL only in Book II. Oh dear, my poor head. Tomorrow: Canto XI and XII. Long live the Britons.
